Just saying good bye. . .

My daughter pointed out that this time, I am the one leaving her. She is right in many ways. I am leaving her, her home, her country. Lesotho is her home. For now. I am also leaving a remarkable woman to continue her work of choice. At some point, she will return to the USA ---- but for now, she has more to do here.

As I have learned over the past few weeks, the woman I am leaving here is still my daughter but so much more. I will spare you (and her) the details, but if I was proud of her when she left in November, 2008, I am ten times prouder today.
